Combating Terrorism
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page brief to the President. In combating terrorism in the wake of the September 11 attacks, the recommendation is that the administration maintain its current track on security while still encouraging business as usual, all the while balancing with continual assessment of Americans' liberties. It is for these that we are most hated, and we must ensure that citizens' liberties remain. Efforts to preserve citizens' liberties need to include tight protectionism of borders (not of business) and the unmistakable message that noncitizens will be scrutinized for no reason other than the fact that they are not citizens and so have no vested in preserving the freedoms that are so uniquely American. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
